I was just perusing the Papa John's website. I noticed an inconsistency in their pricing. Namely the one three-topping large pizza for $10 or two two-topping Pizzas for $22 with $1 going to the Salvation Army.

When you could get two three-topping pizzas for $20 and just give $2 to the Salvation Army yourself. Plus have an additional topping on each pizza.

So in essence they are charging you two toppings and $1 for you to give them another $1 to hand over to the Salvation Army. Where they will also get the charitable donation tax benefits.

I wonder if this was an accidental blunder or if they figured they could scam some extra money off you in the guise of charity?
 
If you want to donate money, do so. They are a business and now, because of this partnership, the SA is bringing in more money than they would have previously. It's not that big of a deal.

I think you can only use one special offer per order. So your not allowed to use the "Large three topping for $10" twice on the same order. You should have circled the "Bundle Order for $20" right below.

Yes you can. I do it all the time.
